Spy Shot - Undisguised Hyundai Tucson

Posted on 06/06/2009 under: SUVs, Hyundai

Based on the ix-onic concept shown at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, the new Hyundai Tucson is already in the pilot production stage. Incidents of the bhp paparazzi coming back with images of car testing in cold weather are plenty. The design language of the new Tucson is unique and bold, something Hyundai is doing regularly with its cars in recent times.

With the extended wheelbase, the new Tucson should offer more cabin space and comfortable seating for the allotted five people. Materials used both external and internal differ from the previous Tucson. Hyundai's trying to push this car higher in terms of quality and also its looks.

The 2010 Tucson will come with the all-new R-diesel 2.0-liter engine. Its fuel consumption has been lowered by 10 percent when compared to the current diesel engine.

The new Tucson possibly debuts at the 2009 L.A. Auto Show and should be on the road of the USA in early 2010.
